Find it at: Fife Street, Nuriootpa
Tolley Reserve, or Nuriootpa Train Playground is a large open space for kids of all ages and abilities. It makes the perfect stop on a day out at the Barossa Valley so that the kids can play and run off some energy!
Play equipment is inclusive, accessible and great for all kids and includes a set of swings, a Liberty Swing, small flying fox, bouncing horse sea saw and of course the train that you can climb up on and play on.
In addition to all the play equipment there is heaps of green space, table and chairs, and lots of shade (but not much shade on the actual play equipment itself!)
The full size old train has been there for years and is an icon in the area.
On the large main play area there is heaps to do. To get to the tunnel slide you need to climb a rope ladder or rock wall. There are 3 slippery dips one double one (bumpy Slide and normal slide)
The playground has toilets including disabled facilities, BBQs and tables and is partially shaded.
